Optical Cable Corp. offers tamper-resistant LC fiber-optic connector

Optical Cable Corp. (OCC) now offers an LC fiber-optic connector with what it asserts is a unique lock-and-key style approach to port security. The connector is well suited for military and government applications, as well as in data centers that require additional security against tampering, OCC says.

The secure LC connectors use an extraction tool to help prevent unauthorized release of the connector from the network panel. Once inserted, the Secure LC becomes locked to the port and requires the keyed extraction tool for removal.

The connector system includes secure LC patch cables available in eight color options, extraction tools, and port plugs. The connectors install easily in any industry standard LC fiber adapter, OCC asserts. Patch cables are available in several configurations including multimode and singlemode options, all using OCC’s HD Bend Tolerant cables.

The LC fiber-optic connector products are covered under the standard OCC 15 year product assurance warranty.
